We now have a dilemma at Sunday Funday: do we continue to refer to the current president as Dear Leader or do we use the newer and maybe more descriptive nomenclature of the Special Counsel’s Office “Individual One?” I must admit that “Individual One” has a real appeal to it. “Individual One” certainly connotes the current legal – uh – quagmire that that person finds himself in. Yet “Dear Leader” certainly has that inference of the overinflated view that our wannabe dictator has of himself.

For right now I believe we shall stick with “Dear Leader” although the lure of switching to what I am sure will become a very popular title for the current president. News organizations and media in general will be adopting “Individual One” as his appellation when his status as “Indicted” comes closer.
